The San Diego Police Department is investigating an accident that seriously injured an elderly pedestrian when he was struck by a car in downtown San Diego on Monday morning. The accident occurred at the intersection of Sixth Avenue and F Street in the Core-Columbia district of San Diego, and was reported shortly before noon.
The male pedestrian, who was not identified but described as elderly, was taken to a trauma center with severe injuries. The cause of the accident remains under investigation. We hope this man is able to make it through his injuries and fully recover, although the recovery period may be lengthy. The impact of a catastrophic accident such as this one can last a lifetime. The victim and his family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
While this accident is still under investigation, the family of the man injured may benefit from consulting with an experienced San Diego pedestrian accident attorney, who will make sure the rights of this man are protected, and that he is compensated for his injuries and the pain he is forced to endure. An attorney will determine whether the driver of the vehicle was speeding, or otherwise driving recklessly or negligently.
